Lovi Assistant explains

  • Offers moderate exfoliation and hydration suitable for your normal skin, as gluconolactone and lactic acid gently renew the skin and provide mild soothing effects. Azelaic acid and tranexamic acid further support your goal of addressing pigmentation by targeting uneven skin tone.
  • The inclusion of oat and panthenol provides additional soothing benefits, enhancing overall skin comfort.
  • The product is safe for your normal skin, with no risks of irritation due to the absence of harsh ingredients and the presence of soothing components.

How to apply

  • Use your exfoliant PM once a week to start, moving up to twice a week if your skin likes it. Always apply SPF during the day while using this product.
  • Apply this exfoliant step right after your cleanser and toner, and before your moisturizer.
  • Gently press 2-3 drops of the exfoliant into your skin and let it dry. Avoid rubbing your face hard.
  • Apply the product on clean, completely dry skin to make sure it works best for your pigmentation goals.
  • Remember to avoid the delicate eye area and do a quick patch test before using it for the first time.
